 ****************\n\nProfessor Giovanni De Micheli\n\nCarrying the Torch\n\
 nAbstract\nFrom my perspective as a researcher and educator\, the torch re
 presents the message that I carry and will pass on to a new generation of 
 scientists and engineers. The interaction and networking with the communit
 y is essential to our activity: indeed\, we teach to and learn from each o
 ther. The circle symbolizes the flow of information among peers as well as
  a paradigm where crossbreeding of ideas and methods is key to scientific 
 advances. This message will be portrayed with examples from my scientific 
 career and a vision of the future.\n\nAbout the speaker\nGiovanni De Miche
 li is currently the Scientific Director of the EcoCloud center at EPFL. H
 e was professor of Electrical Engineering and Computer Science at Stanford
  and EPFL for 40 years. Prof. De Micheli is a Fellow of ACM\, AAAS and IEE
 E\, elected member of 4 Academies\, including the US National Academy of E
 ngineering and the American Academy of Arts and Sciences. He was the recip
 ient of the 2025 IEEE Gustav Kirchhoff Award\, the 2022 ESDA-IEEE Phil Kau
 fman Award and several other awards.\n
